I support competition from Eva, Singapore, and Qantas, but not HK Airlines and HK Express. Feel free to correct me if I said anything wrong, I've not been very up to date recently.
I always have fun when I read these comments about subsidized airlines. But let's not start again.
Apparently you miss that HK airlines and HKExpress are quite different airlines. The latter one is a true LCC.
HK airline offesr very good value in business. Long flights with full flat bed, lovely lounge at HKIA, priority at security. And given CX food/wine offering in J, not much of a downgrade on HX.
A real competitor for CX.
